12v vs two 6v batteries
Just keep in mind that joining two 6v batts will keep the amps the same, where by joining two 12v batts, the amps will double.
The above is misleading, and possibly erroneous. The capacity of a quality GC2 Six volt battery is generally around 220AH, where the capacity of a good 12V battery is around 100AH ... so you will end up with slightly more capacity with the heavier duty two 6V batteries anyway.
Some people think the 220 6v will give them 440 amps at 12v . All i am saying is a GC-2 at 220 amps is still 220 amps when adding the 2nd GC-2.
However, if you add two 100amp 12 v batts together the amps double to 200 amps but keep the 12v supply to the rv.
